Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
Multiverse is so god damn awesome. This little online fan manga is drawn beautifully, and lately the writing has been superb. Evil Goku is easily one of the greatest characters that they have introduced thus far. These surreal interactions and scenarios make you appreciate the glory of the Dragon Ball universe even more.

Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
I can't remember, I think it was in a comment. I remember his saying something like "just because Freeza never did it doesn't mean he doesn't have the potential to do it" or something. Maybe I just heard it though. But the minicomic said that the Coola discovered the 5th form through training, so at least it confirmed that it's not exclusive to him, which fits with what Salagir (possibly) said.funrush wrote:When was that?DBZGTKOSDH wrote:It was also hinted by Salagir that Freeza will have a 5th form as well, I think.
That'd be pretty cool.
James Teal (Animerica 1996) wrote:When you think about it, there are a number of similarities between the Chinese-inspired Son Goku and that most American of superhero icons, Superman. Both are aliens sent to Earth shortly after birth to escape the destruction of their homeworlds; both possess super-strength, flight, super-speed, heightened senses and the ability to cast energy blasts. But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.
Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.

Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
Here's my question: why does Freeza have to be any stronger in order to be relevant? Why does power have to be the sole determinant? There's a lot going on in the background of the tournament and Freeza could be just as important as Cell.

Doesn't make sense... Cell dodges to appear behind Bojack to get shot in the face?
Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
It's obvious Cell's just messing with him, letting Bojack get some free hits just to show that it doesn't effect him.hleV wrote:Doesn't make sense... Cell dodges to appear behind Bojack to get shot in the face?

He dodged the punch to show him that he was faster than Bojack. Now he's taking that blast dead on to show that he's stronger too.
And I can't un-see the disappearing/re-appearing earrings now...

Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
Cell is easily my favorite villain.
Yamcha: Do you remember the spell to release him - do you know all the words?
Bulma: Of course! I'm not gonna pull a Frieza and screw it up!
Master Roshi: Bulma, I think Frieza failed because he wore too many clothes!

Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
Loving the art on this page. Bojack's face in panel 3 looks great.
Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
Yea, he is quite the bad-ass. My favorite multiverse character next to Boo and Vegetto. He'd be my number one favorite villain from the main series if I didn't like Super Boo so much.jjgp1112 wrote:Cell is easily my favorite villain.
Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
Yeah Zen Buu and Cell definitely take the cake in the villain department. They got so much potential

Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
I like how all of the villains are coming up with their own unique ways to gain an advantage. Freeza and his family know they're not the most powerful at the tournament so they're opting for espionage to basically get around the rules. Cell and Buu, meanwhile, are doing their best to undermine the organizers control, which is already shaky at best.

While he missed the punch, Bojack still had fast enough reflexes to nail Cell with the blast.hleV wrote:Then why did Cell dodge Bojack's fist..?Scarz wrote:It's obvious Cell's just messing with him, letting Bojack get some free hits just to show that it doesn't effect him.hleV wrote:Doesn't make sense...

Too bad that Cell's apparently tough enough to take it.

That blooper page was actually really enjoyable... shows a little more of the hard work these guys go through.
Pretty funny as well.

Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
Now I'm pissed...the original rough draft apparently had Goku in his blue dogi.
Goku adopting the blue dogi came off as a sign of development for his character to me, even if a bit minor. I don't know why they had to go back and change it the orange, even if it is iconic. It's not like I think he couldn't change to another dogi from the blue one, but putting him in the exact same orange one from the Cell/Buu Arc feels like a wrong step backward to me... I dunno, maybe it's just me. *shurg*

Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
Next page is leaked, but without text.
Character development? You mean like a "I'm old and the earth's protection is in the kids hands now" kind of thing? I've always wondered why Goku wore the blue dogi in-universe. I guess that makes sense.Now I'm pissed...the original rough draft apparently had Goku in his blue dogi.

You're not alone. I feel like his blue dogi was a sign of some sort of new chapter in his life, where he became his own master.

Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
Not exactly, though that could also work. I just view it more like the transition from student to teacher by retiring his old student colors. (In just the scope of the manga) he has surpassed the highest gods and defeated the universe's greatest foe that threatened everything in existence. So, while he's always open to any method anyone can offer him to better himself, he's also finally considering himself the at the top of the "food chain" and not seeing many hurdles left for him to overcome.Storm101 wrote:Character development?

If they wanted to bring the orange colors back for Mutliverse, I wish they would have at least made some sort of effort to acknowledge that it was because the tournament was a special occasion or something (kinda like the JSAT).
